They are such cheap cars nowadays though, but obviously it's the upkeep that's pricey, but apart from servicing which if you are bothered about service history from BMW or Independants then it's not really that bad. In most areas it's cheaper to run than my Mazda, apart from fuel!!

Why would I have shopping bags? Anything that needs carried can go behind the seats, or in the boot anyway, but once it's sprayed I won't be carrying anything that can scratch the paint

It's a rear brace. Strengthens the suspension turrets, chassis rails and generally makes it all stiffer. Still plenty of space to be putting stuff in the car if you are worried about stuff like that. Got my missus Cooper S to do that carrying stuff around thing, which is currently stuffed with BMW interior, carpets etc from when I picked it up from Nickson

No point putting the interior back in as it would need to be removed to get the cage out, which will probably be coming out pretty soon if I can sort painting out

Thanks for comments guys

M3's are useless in the snow

Sound deadening all removed now. Looking forwards to weighing the bag to see how much it weighs as its surprisingly heavy. Just can't wait to see it painted now.

I have a remap already Jambo but I want it looked at by a specialist and not an 'Internet hyped' specialist like Thorney/Evolve
And I definetly want a CSL airbox, if a cheap one comes up I'll look at it as an investment...

We have had 2 days of snow so far, and I've driven in both, but it's still useless on slight inclines

It's just a Canon 400D with fixed 50mm lens for the ones with blurred background & standard 18-55mm for the rest. Still produces some decent shots for a 5 year old camera!

Cheers Fad haven't got round to sitting the missus Mini yet will text you if I need it looked at :-)
